His latest modification to the [Xbox 360](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xbox-poster) console was a major one that left the system looking nothing like it did before. For his latest stunning modification, Mark Bongo took the guts of an Xbox 360 and put it into a custom R2-D2 housing. As if transforming the boring white console wasn't enough, Mark Bongo decided to go one step further and add a projector into the R2-D2 housing as well. The final result will make any Star Wars fan drool. Mark Bongo has devised a complete package that plays video games and displays them on any wall. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 60% | Activity: 20% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Custom Gaming Consoles:** Businesses can innovate by exploring unique console designs for targeted individuals and communities. - **Sci-fi Themed Gaming:** Businesses can pursue themed gaming experiences that celebrate popular franchises with their products. - **Integrated Projector Hardware:** Companies can incorporate visual projection hardware into innovative forms of gaming hardware. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Gaming Industry:** Businesses in the gaming industry can benefit from creating custom and themed hardware to increase engagement and accessibility. - **Consumer Electronics Industry:** The consumer electronics industry has an opportunity to expand into themed and custom hardware products for specific markets, such as sci-fi fans. - **Entertainment Industry:** Entertainment industry companies can leverage themed gaming experiences to create additional revenue streams and cross-promotional opportunities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Collaboration Sci-Fi Gamer Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/microsoft-the-mandalorian-xbox.md) - [Personalized Artful Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nak-studio.md) - [Sci-Fi-Themed Gaming Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razer-boba-fett-xbox-controller.md) - [Comic-Inspired Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xmen-97-xbox.md) - [Projector-Equipped Handheld Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-game-boy-concept.md) - [Gaming-Centric 4K Projectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gamingcentric-4k-projector.md) - [3D Display Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uplight-game-console.md) - [Gaming-Approved Projectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lx7004k-laser-projector.md) - [AI-Supporting Art Projects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electronics-hub-art.md)
